Price was pretty good, nice clean bedroom, bathroom. Would've been nice to have more bedding though! Parking is frustrating as you have to pay for a park to stay there, then walk a block to it. Not ideal for colder months

The hotel and rooms are very nice. The service really good. The restaurant is a hot mess. At least when we came for breakfast. It took an hour to get the food and the coffee was Luke warm. Another table left after an hour wait I sent my scrambled eggs back - they were straight off the buffet.

I was very satisfied with my stay here at Carnmore. It's close to riverside market, victoria square, BNZ center, botanical garden, and especially the bus interchange. I was greeted by Mercy upon check in, had a nice conversation and she was very helpful during my stay in Carnmore! She gave me a map and recommended me places to visit and how to get there which I greatly appreciate because this is my fiest time in Christchurch, New Zealand. Also, big thanks to my housekeeper, there's daily room cleaning which I really appreciate! I feel very welcomed whenever I come back to a tidy room after a long and exhausting day. I haven't gotten the chance to eat at Hoi Polloi (the hotel's restaurant), other than ordering a chocolate mousse. The presentation is beautiful and the cake was great!
